Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from the C-terminal region of human IFNA1/13. AA range:140-189
Specificity
IFN-α1 Polyclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of IFN-α1 protein.
Constitute
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.
Source
Polyclonal, Rabbit,IgG
Dilution rate
Western Blot: 1/500 - 1/2000. ELISA: 1/20000. Not yet tested in other applications.
Purification process
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
Other name
IFNA1; IFNA13; Interferon alpha-1/13; IFN-alpha-1/13; Interferon alpha-D; LeIF D
Background
The protein encoded by this gene is produced by macrophages and has antiviral activity. This gene is intronless and the encoded protein is secreted. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011],
Function
function:Produced by macrophages, IFN-alpha have antiviral activities. Interferon stimulates the production of two enzymes: a protein kinase and an oligoadenylate synthetase.,miscellaneous:Interferons alpha-1 and alpha-13 have identical protein sequences.,polymorphism:Two forms exist; alpha-1a (shown here) and alpha-1b.,similarity:Belongs to the alpha/beta interferon family.,
